Another One of Corky’s Bikes.

Filed under: Uncategorized — Jim @ 8:40 pm

As I mentioned in an earlier post (which contained a picture of one of Corky’s bikes), Corky is the bro of my friend and bodyguard, Ken, and he designs and fabricates badass motorcycles. Below is yet another of Corky’s bikes. Sweet, no?

While in Florida in May, Corky let me sit on this Bad Boy, but given my long-expired motorcycle license, my blood alcohol level at the time, and his (and my) desire not to turn this beauty into scrap metal, he “suggested” that I not fire it up.

Here is a close-up of the rear fender with the raised image. Corky explained how he did this, but did I mention my blood-alcohol level at the time? Damned if I know how he did it, but it is most impressive.

Should you be interested in talking with Corky about one of these bikes or something else you have in mind (particularly if you live anywhere near Florida), shoot me an e-mail, and I’ll hook you up.

As I said in the prior post, in the interest of full disclosure, I suspect that my “commission” should you buy one of Corky’s units, will be a cold beer, which works for me.

Corky’s Bikes

Several of you (particularly the Jawja Bloggers) have met my friend and bodyguard, Ken.  Ken’s brother, Corky, is in the custom motorcycle building business, and as you can see, Corky does very nice work.  I have pictures of other bikes Corky has designed, which I will post in the coming days/weeks, depending on how long it takes me to master the image-thing in WordPress.

If you are of the mind to want to communicate with Corky about one of these machines, drop me an e-mail at jim[at]parkwayreststop[dot]com (you know how to figure that out)**, and I will provide you with the Corkster’s e-mail address.

In the interest of full disclosure, I am reasonably sure that if you buy one of Corky’s bikes, he’ll buy me a beer, which works just fine for me.

** I still am working on figuring out how to put my e-mial link back into Mr. Sidebar.
